STEPPING INTO GOD'S REALM

Acts 17: 27-28
..so that they should seek the Lord, in the hope that they might grope for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us.; for in Him we live and move and have our being.


We often invite God to come into our lives. But isn’t He here already. Isn’t that why we call him the Omnipresent one– present everywhere at the same time. So why do we not see more of His power, direction and influence in the issues that concern us?

I think it is not really about God stepping into our realm. He is here already; it’s more about us stepping into His realm.

An analogy.

Radio stations beam into our homes 24 hours a day. You may have a radio in your room but if you don’t switch it on and then tune it to a particular station, you can’t be a part of what is being beamed.

God is near. So near, because His presence consistently gives us breath each second and He keeps us alive. But there is so much more we hardly tap into. If we don't take the time to tune into Him, we can pass through this whole life time unaware of the fact His hand is extended in friendship.


All we need to get more of God is to step into his invisible realm. Beyond our regular time of prayer and reading the bible – (Sometimes we do not give more than 15minutes in a day to this), it would also require us taking time to be constantly conscious of his presence. We would need to set aside some time of quiet, where we take note of his presence and allow an intimacy to grow. Informal communication with Him at your desk in the office, in the bathroom, while you are driving, will all add up. Offering up words of affection, thanksgiving and praise for all He has done, will make Him more real.

Do all this and don’t be surprised when you see more of God’s manifestation in your life. Healings, direction, deliverance, assignments, special wisdom, solutions are just a few of the benefits of stepping in. TRY IT!!
